Background

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Simian Immunodeficiency Virus (SIV) require coreceptors to enter and infect target cells. They are dependent upon an interaction between the viral envelope glycoprotein with T-cell antigen T4 (CD4) and a G protein coupled receptor (GPCR). HIV-1 infection relies upon interaction with a chemokine receptor, usually chemokine (C-C) receptor 5 (CCR5). During progression of the infection, the virus tends to rely upon chemokine (C-X-C) receptor 4 (CXCR4). SIV also utilizes CCR5 in the early stages of infection, but during progression it tends to rely on two orphan GPCR's named chemokine (C-X-C) receptor 6 (Bonzo) and G protein coupled receptor 15 (BOB/GRP15). Bonzo mRNA expression has been localized to lymphoid tissues and activated peripheral blood lymphocytes. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) require co-receptors, in addition to CD4, to infect target cells. Some G protein coupled receptors including CCR5, CXCR4, CCR3, and CCR2b in the chemokine receptor family have been identified as HIV co-receptors. An orphan G protein coupled receptor was recently cloned and designated Bonzo, STRL33 and TYMSTR, and identified as HIV and SIV co-receptor (1-4). Bonzo/STRL33 is used by SIV, HIV-2 and HIV-1. The messenger RNA of Bonzo/STRL33 is expressed in lymphoid tissues and activated peripheral blood lymphocytes.
